   How about SML PNS or TNY PNS?



   Come on - some jerks are going to be thinking that anyway & might give
   you

   grief just for having the car - even more so with a personalized
   plate. Making

   fun of yourself might stop an ugly situation from ever happening - &
   chicks will

   probably dig it :)

AND, you forgot to say this, its just as fast up to about 80 or 90 as a 308 
then runs out of legs.  Your car is quite agile and a joy to drive.

Howdy,
Tried to find this answer in the IRS database -
My mom lived with us for the last 10 years of her life (at one point we had 
my M-I-L here also - for about 10 m).  We provided care with the help of 
Hospice during the last 9 months.

She had no estate - basically a zero balance checking acct & no other 
assets - I was her executor.  I paid for her funeral out of my account.

Question is, can I deduct her funeral expenses?  I never claimed her as a 
dependent and when she passed away in Jan. 06 I paid around $5k for the 
funeral.

I guess I didn't have to pay for it, but *someone* had to.  I didn't mind, 
I'd do it again - I guess it wasn't manadatory but I'd like to use the 
deduction if appropriate.

Thx -

Hey Doug: Right again, my friend. But it was closer to 70mph. I learned this 
the day Tom Reynolds and I swapped GT4s for an afternoon tour of the wine 
country of Baja Arizona, down around Elgin. There (IMHO) was no difference in 
performance until Tom started to creep ahead of me about 70mph in his 308 
'Mario' although I was shifting @ 7.5K rpm. We traded cars and the same thing 
happened. That extra litre sure pays off. On the bright side though, in each 
car I was always faster in stopping and tasting the fine wines of the region. 
Hell, Tom was just getting out of his car when I was ordering my 2nd glass. No 
'short dogs' in a paper sack around there. Damn - how I miss L.A. and Skid Row.
 
Yer pal, Ferrari Bubba

Hey Larry. Sorry to hear of your loss. Same thing happened to me when my 23 
year-old son was killed on a motorcycle. The hospital and funeral expenses set 
me back around $10 grand. I paid for everything. Deduct it on my taxes? Hell 
no. I was proud to do it. I wanted to pay it for my only son as a final gesture 
of love and gratitude that I felt and still feel  for him. He wasn't just 
another tax exemption for me, HE WAS MY SON. Of course that's only the way I 
feel. Others may feel differently.
 
Yer pal, Bill Hilser

Larry:

According to page 14 of IRS Publication #529, the answer is "no." You cannot
deduct funeral expenses as an itemized deduction on your Form 1040, nor by
an estate on Form 1041. Funeral expenses may only be deducted on an estate
tax return using Form 706 for estates valued at over $2MM.

Check IRS Publications 559 and 529 for reference:

My condolences on your loss.

deduct funeral expenses as an itemized deduction on your Form 1040, nor by
an estate on Form 1041. Funeral expenses may only be deducted on an estate
tax return using Form 706 for estates valued at over $2MM.

Check IRS Publications 559 and 529 for reference:

My condolences on your loss.

Question


Howdy,
Tried to find this answer in the IRS database -
My mom lived with us for the last 10 years of her life (at one point we had
my M-I-L here also - for about 10 m).  We provided care with the help of
Hospice during the last 9 months.

She had no estate - basically a zero balance checking acct & no other
assets - I was her executor.  I paid for her funeral out of my account.

Question is, can I deduct her funeral expenses?  I never claimed her as a
dependent and when she passed away in Jan. 06 I paid around $5k for the
funeral.

I guess I didn't have to pay for it, but *someone* had to.  I didn't mind,
I'd do it again - I guess it wasn't manadatory but I'd like to use the
deduction if appropriate.

Thx -

Hi Bill, 
    I'm really very sorry to hear about your son - there's no words of 
condolence suitable when a young son such as yours dies.  I wish there was 
something I could say that would help ease the pain but I think only time 
helps.  

    I was prepared to do the same - it was done and past history - then I found 
I owe almost $2k in taxes & have been looking for all deductions possible (& 
impossible it appears).  She was with us for 10+ years with the last 3 yrs 
totally bedridden.  If my wife wasn't an angel I'm not sure I could have 
managed the bathing, bathroom stuff, meals, etc.  My wife & I both promised our 
parents we wouldn;t let them go into a nursing home - they were from a 
generation where "nursing home" had a very bad conotation.   At one point both 
our moms were "living" with us.  Debbie's mom was comatose when she arrived - 
the doctor sent her home to die but once we got her off the dozen or so meds 
she came back (terrible doctor that she trusted).  As for my mom -   my brother 
& his wife were in the process of admitting her to a NH when we went and 
brought her home with us.  Not a pretty scene.  Mom was confused much of the 
time.

Sorry about the long story -

  Hey Larry. Sorry to hear of your loss. Same thing happened to me when my 23 
year-old son was killed on a motorcycle. The hospital and funeral expenses set 
me back around $10 grand. I paid for everything. Deduct it on my taxes? Hell 
no. I was proud to do it. I wanted to pay it for my only son as a final gesture 
of love and gratitude that I felt and still feel  for him. He wasn't just 
another tax exemption for me, HE WAS MY SON. Of course that's only the way I 
feel. Others may feel differently.

  Yer pal, Bill Hilser

I'd like to start a discussion on the differences between the FXX and the
Enzo.

I've seen all of the published stats on the web, in print, etc. Has anyone
driven both or have any insider info on the real differences in feel,
performance, scaled weight, etc.

Are there any published performance figures for the FXX?

Does this video make anyone's privates tingle?

The FXX is to the Enzo what the 430/360 Challenge is to the street car.  Is
the FXX a "real" race car?  It might seem like it to most, but it's not in
that it's still a modified street car.  It's also peculiar in that it's not
really intended to be raced, yet it's a race car.  The fit and finish on the
FXX is perhaps the best ever in a "race car".  

Vty,

--Dennis

Just finished watching it, and that guy really seems to have his hands full.
He goes to power way too abruptly, and needs to be WAY smoother on the
accel. He seems to have decent car control, which he's probably learned as a
necessity of his driving style which probably gets him in trouble often. He
seems to be fighting the car way more than he should. But I've yet to drive
an FXX, so who knows if I'd be any better.
